A recent study by company Security Protection1 revealed that there are over 6.000 open access cameras security, without even a code, throughout the US territory.
According to the company's findings, most of these cameras are located in public places, but the list also includes cameras at the headquarters of private businesses, even in homea of many Americans.
Protection1 notes that the highest concentration of unprotected cameras is around major urban centers such as region of San Francisco Bay, the Los Angeles area, Seattle, Chicago, the Florida cities, and all along the Atlantic coast, from Washington to Boston.
Beyond the cameras they offer for free open access steaming with viewing in public spaces, there are also cameras that have been installed in homes and publicly broadcast what is happening inside the home. These cameras are extremely dangerous for her better safety of the occupants of these homes as a camera without a password is a keyhole for thieves.
The funny thing is that the owners of these homes and businesses have installed the cameras as a surveillance system in order to prevent thieves from a robbery. But the same cameras offer thieves the perfect system for monitoring the premises and collecting information about when and how many people are inside the house, if there is a dog, what are cameras, what are their "dead" points, etc etc.
And if you laugh at the Americans believing they are easy and naive, let us remind you that there are also several cameras in Greece without a code or their worksite code. See the relevant article I'm here.
